Hello,

I submitted my dtv application to the LA embassy on 5/3 (Saturday). It's now 5/15 (8 working days later) and my application is still "pending document check." At which point is it reasonable to contact them and ask for an update? Thanks

How long has your DTV application been on Pending Approval? Mine went from pending document check to pending approval. Is that a good sign?

Hi! I’m curious, is anyone else visiting Bali while awaiting their Visa’s being approved, experiencing an un-usually long delay, keeping you in Bali way longer than you planned for? I had an anonymous member leave a comment on my post, saying that they were having this issue just like me. If there’s an issue with immigrations approving Visa’s in Bali/Indonesia, I want to know. People have a right to know, before they come to here in the 1st place.

I am looking to apply for a DTV either in HCMC or Hanoi. Which of the 2 have the fastest processing times? I want to stay no longer than 10 days. Thank you

I applied for my visa online on the 15th to Thailand with the royal embassy out of ny. My trip is next week and it still states pending approval. I’m worried. Is there someone to call for further info?

Hey guys I’m currently in Thailand I am going to Vientiane to apply for my DTV. I have filled out all the documentation besides proof of location as I will have to show proof that I am out of Thailand using the Laos entry stamp.

I was wondering once I have entered Laos and I have submitted my application via E Visa website. How long will take roughly for the application to be processed as I currently sorting out accommodation.

Any information would be greatly appreciated

Just wanted to know if anyone else waited nearly a month in Cambodia just to have their dtv rejected?

Hi everyone! 🙂

I'm currently in Thailand but planning to apply for the new DTV visa. I'm thinking of leaving the country for a few weeks to apply from somewhere else.

I have a couple of questions and would really appreciate your help:

1. Which country or embassy is the fastest and easiest for processing the DTV visa? I was considering Kuala Lumpur, but I’ve read mixed reviews. If you've done it there (or elsewhere), could you share your experience and how long it took?

2. Is it possible to complete the whole process online, or do I need to go to the embassy in person? Or does it vary by location or specific officer?

Thanks a lot in advance for any tips or info! 🙏🙂

Update: Just approved now!! May 8th

DTV soft power application HCMC: I applied on 4/22 and within a few hours, it went to pending approval. I know there are two holidays this week. I have my anticipated arrival date at May 17th. Just curious if anyone else applied around this date and has been approved.
